Customize reminder templates

Customize reminder templates

On the Healthquest tabletop select Setup > Text/Email/Voice Template Setup.



Create templates for any of the platforms: Text, Voice, and Email. It is likely that you want similar information sent to patients no matter how they choose to receive reminders; if so, you will want to create matching templates for each type of template.
